[PATCH 2.6.16-rc3] m32r: __cmpxchg_u32 fix

From: Hirokazu Takata
Date: Mon Feb 20 2006 - 08:38:20 EST


This patch fixes a bug of include/asm-m32r/system.h:__cmpxchg_u32().

static __inline__ unsigned long
__cmpxchg_u32(volatile unsigned int *p, unsigned int old, unsigned int new);

In __cmpxchg_u32(), the "old" value must not be changed to the previous "*p"
value. But the former code modifies the previous "*p" value.

A deadlock at _atomic_dec_and_lock sometimes happened due to this bug.

Please apply this patch.

Thanks,
